Good write up Sicorra! I've not heard of all of these, so I learned something new today. :) We really do not use any apps to manage our finances, other than maybe a coupon one to save some money around town.

Thanks for sharing details about these apps, Sicorra. I really don't like doing finance stuff on my phone for fear a hacker can access and steal my stuff, but now that I know about these apps, I might feel a little more at ease and willing to access my bank account when I need to instead of waiting until I get home :)
